Our Last 6 Months in Review
These last six months have been busy with growth, revolution, and creation in Tetuan Valley. Since February, we’ve been hard at work in our four main areas of development: our university programs, corporate partnerships, our new incubator program, and of course, our start-up schools.
University Programs
Our mission impels us to work with those at the forefront of innovation and market disturbance; it is clear to us that university students are rising leaders of this sort. To aid these young entrepreneurs in shaping their (and our) future, we have important collaborations with two universities:
- San Pablo CEU
- UCJC
These past 6 months we’ve successfully paired students with our extended network of mentors to guide them in product validation and prototyping.
Corporate Partnerships
We are focused in creating symbiotic relations between large corporations and our SMEs to foster the growth of the collaborative ecosystem that our founders first envisioned. Pragmatically, we’ve built bridges for corporations that have very market-niche needs and our start-ups that have the necessary technology expertise to successfully address them. We partner with:
- Nfq Solutions: an ongoing collaboration to bring in-house innovation to Nfq
- EDP: a program of vertical acceleration for energy solutions
- Ferrovial/Unibail: for whom we provide research and scouting
The Astronaut
We’ve teamed up with the leading accelerator in Spain, Seedrocket, to create an incubator program for the start-ups at the campus. Here’s what you need to know:
- 30 incubated start-ups
- 2 participating accelerators
- 3 monthly events: luncheons and mentor talks
Start-Up Schools
We have three different start-up schools across Spain.
Our six week programs have produced 22 prototypes.
